Brief Synopsis:
After 10 years it's about time I could watch the Star Wars Prequel trilogy without feeling physical pain, damn it!. But not just that, they should be out and out pleasures to watch!

...and so the idea for 'Star Wars: Reborn' arrived.

Intention:
My goal with these edits was to create versions of the PT that were to put it simply 'enjoyable to watch'. I wanted to make good versions of these films that still felt like the same films in essence.

I've seen other great edits that chop the films down to 90 mins but for me a true SW film should give you around 2 solid hrs of entertainment (And not 2.5hrs either!).

I've achieved this by:-

Trimming action scenes to increase pace. Reworking all major Lightsaber duels. Evaluating and then editing every line of dialogue that I felt didn't work. Adding a few OT music queues. Adding portions of most but not all deleted scenes back in. Removing over-the-top CGI shots and Digi-Doubles.

But most importantly of all I've focused on transforming the characters. In TPM Anakin is brave and an amazing pilot, Padme and The Queen are one character, while Jar-Jar has purpose and is no longer annoying. In AOTC Anakin is now likeable and you believe the romance with Padme. In ROTS needless messing around with R2 is replaced with warm character moments between Anakin and Obi-Wan, while Padme is no longer confined to her apartment, she has a role in the senate, she feeds Anakin's growing unease and she has a part in the seeds of the coming Rebellion. Lastly Anakin is not revealed to be Vader so you can still enjoy ESB.

Editing Details:
I was excited by reading Adywan's plans for the SW:pT trilogy on the Revisited website and knew this would be years in the making. So I decided to try and fix them for myself. I'd seen a VHS rip of The Phantom Edit a decade ago and I'd completed a fan edit of Kill Bill several years ago so I knew it was both possile and fun! Before doing these edits I avoided watching any other versions to keep my mind fresh. After completing these Star Wars edits I've gorged myself on other SW fan edits and they did some stunning work. They tightened up pacing, they swapped scenes, they trimmed repetition but for me they didn't always get to the heart of the problem.

I felt the this problem with the PT was "Likeability". If you liked the characters, liked the scenes and liked the dialogue you shouldn't need to chop the films down to 90 mins or less. Because you'll want to spend the full standard SW 2 hours in this world just like the OT. In this edit I've trimmed bad dialogue and acting throughout, recut, condensed or removed scenes, redubbed the Gungans, rewrote all subtitles, inserted the classic Fox and Lucasfilm logo opening, removed the Queen/Padme subplot, made Anikin a courageous hero and made Jar-Jar a Prince. I've also added back all the deleted material (But trimmed that for quality too).

I hope this is the first part of a trilogy that people are truly going to ENJOY.

And a bonus clip featuring an extract from an early aborted edit where I removed all the Gungans...!

 
Congrats on the approval!
 
'bitch pudding' :lol:
I've seen a lot of the TPM edits on our forum, and frankly, it's easier to commit myself to watching new AOTC or ROTS edits. A good thing then that the subtitle thing for JJ got me interested! :)

Thanks Frink. Good to see it up. Will get AOTC and ROTS Reborn listed now (And other projects).
 
Congrats on the release TM2YC. I will post a review... promise... just been very busy of late.
 
[MENTION=9112]TZLEDZEP22[/MENTION] I deleted your post. Please read The Rules and Using This Site.

Also, as a side note, this is not the thread to discuss The Ridiculous Menace, this is the thread to discuss The Phantom Menace: Reborn.
 
But it's not even up on fanedit.info...Where else am I supposed to get it?

Seriously, you are going to continue this charade? Infraction given. Read the rules and info on how to use the site. We do not discuss distribution here. Contact the editor via PM if you want to find out how to get it. We are not connected with Fanedit.info
 
I'm sorting out easier access but as others have said ^, my PM inbox is always open to those who want to know more about my edits.

TM2YC,

I just watched your vid of the final battle and it looks like you've made some really great editing choices. It feels like it flows smoothly too, which is a feat in itself for this particular sequence. I'll definitely be watching this one and hopefully your versions of the other two episodes will be coming soon.

Thanks to [MENTION=28671]mmmann[/MENTION] for a very positive review :). As this was my first edit submitted to FE.org I've got the feeling that it's probably quite rough compared to the stuff I'm working on now but maybe it's better executed than I think :p from your comments...

This is an INCREDIBLE fan edit--perhaps the creme-da-la-creme of Phantom Menace edits.

It's difficult to pick a clear TPM FE "winner" because each edit has its own intentions and each that I've seen has been skillfully executed and most have achieved their stated goals, but given that my desire in a Phantom Menace movie matches very closely to TM2YC's stated goals, I cannot help but vote this so very highly.

TM2YC's goals were to:

- Create a movie that is enjoyable, without moments where you cringe.
- Add depth and clarity to the characters.
- Keep the length up--a Hollywood movie should be 1.5 - 2 hours long.

All of these goals were achieved, admirably. The Portuguese soundtrack was used to obscure bad dialog, and the associated subtitling allowed the movie to go "off script" where needed to clean up a lot of problems and add interest and depth to the characters. A lot of deleted scenes were introduced and the quality of the upconversion is astounding. Some of the edits (trims, cuts, transitions) are amazing. There is an edit during the Gungan / Droid fight that is so seamless, and so craftily fixes a certain unbearable issue in the original movie, that I was floored at the solution that TM2YC employed. I watched the entire movie and actually forgot what a train wreck the original was...I was pulled into the movie and found myself enjoying it. If I had to create a time capsule for future generations, this edit of the Phantom Menace is the one I'd probably drop in.

No review is complete without attempting to lend some critique to the FE. This is quite difficult, in this case, but I'll try and mention a few things so as to have performed my duty in providing feedback to the editor.

- Portuguese works really well...unless you're a Portuguese. But that's an intrinsic problem with the use-an-alternate-soundtrack approach to "alien-izing" and subtitling the CGI characters.
- I think, perhaps, the pod race may have been a minute or two longer than I prefer. It's a great bit of movie-making--probably Lucas' showpiece of the movie--but there's a "diminishing returns" aspect of having the pod race go on for so long. Maybe the deleted scenes could have been trimmed a tad.
- Of course their will /always/ be differences in opinion with regards to where exactly to cut and splice. During the course of watching this FE, there were a handful of moments where I thought that I would have made a mildly different modification. They were few and far between.

An astounding accomplishment. I burned this onto a dual-layer DVD for a friend and told him, "Watch this. This is NOT the prequel(s) that you remember. You'll enjoy this." And that is the essence of a perfect Star Wars prequel fan edit.

Nice that a few people are still checking these edits out.

I seem to be alone in the universe in thinking that the Podrace was the only bit of the prequels that felt 100% like Star Wars (At least with the stupid parts cut out) and could never have been too long ;-). It's the one time little-Annie actually does something heroic and exciting.

You giving it to a friend is quite a compliment and I hope they have fun with it (Or as much fun as you can reasonably have with TPM).
 
Hello,

I am a long time fan of just fan edits in general and have a small personal collection burnt to DVD for my own viewing pleasure, I signed up for the site a year ago but then for whatever reason never really used my account however I frequently visit the site to catch up on new edits and news, anyway my main reason for contacting you is because I am a huge Star Wars fan and came across your edits, I really want to watch them but have no idea where to get/view them, unfortunately their is a bigger problem on my end as well, you see my internet connection is acceptable at best and I have a very difficult time downloading/torrenting large files as they take a very long time, I know its a long shot but is their any way I could get a smaller file copy of your edits somewhere around 900 Mbs or 1 plus gbs sadly anything past around 1.10 gbs I feel would be pushing it


Thank You for your time
